Preparation
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Drizzle each half with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and season with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika or chili powder if desired. Lay the halves cut side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for 35-45 minutes until tender.
Once cool enough to handle, scrape the flesh of the roasted squash with a fork to create spaghetti-like strands. In a small pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic for about 1 minute. Pour the garlic oil over the squash strands and toss gently.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the squash, then return to the oven for 5 minutes to melt the cheese. Remove and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving warm.
